it depends on the info. you have or don't have and if you are willing to spend any money... if you were adopted from an agency, then i would go to the agency and tell them you would like to find your bio. parents... sometimes the agencies have programs where you put your name in their database and if your bio. parents are looking for you then they will start a process to see if it is in yours and your bio. parents' best interests to meet... if you know where you were born, then you try to get the legal paperwork... if you know your parents' names, then you could search on the internet--also, their state or city would help... then you could hire a private detective or someone that specializes in finding bio. parents... you could look on the social security website to see if they are deceased if you know their names and birthdates, etc.
just some ideas...

Well.......if you were adopted, your adopted parents should have some information about your mother....age....where u were born etc. Once you find the city you were born in.........place an ad in that local paper with your name/date of birth/ and say you are lookin for your birth mother. If you were adopted through an agency, they should have records, if they are not sealed they will give you any information you might need. If they are sealed, they can contact your birth mother, with your request to meet with you, and they can make arrangements for the meeting if she wants. Someone in our family just went through this. Where we live, it is quite easy to do, but in some states, it can be quite difficult. I hope you find what you are looking for.

Go back to the place where they lived and see if there is any neighbors who knew your parents or grandparents. Look for some family friends who can give you some information. You can also go to the church where your parents/grandparents went.
Keep looking the information is out there.
